Bots spamming advertisement links via scripts on every channel in dota 2 #6357

Open Ahsankhaann opened 1 year ago

Description

Hello, People made bots to advertise their boosting pages on every city-wise channel in dota 2, its spreading toxicity and inequity in every rank bracket. A screenshot has been attached which shows immortalboost.com and boostore.net advertisements. They ostensibly have bypassed your bot detection mechanics and are somehow spamming with unnamed accounts which are not being able to get flagged or even caught via your system. Kindly make some changes and circumvent this ordeal for the community.

This is the reason I don't join regional Chat in Dota, instead of people interacting it is just filled by Bots.

This is bigger than us not joining the regional chat mate, it is provoking many others who do to resort to such means in order to climb their medals; hence creating a disparity in matchmaking where you find toxic smurfs throwing the games or idling if they do not get their desired roles and so on and so forth.
